SHRIMP AND SCALLOP CHOWDER WITH COCONUT MILK
A seafood chowder with a tropical accent. Scotch Bonnet chiles are very hot, so use serrano or jalapeno if you like a milder taste. Also use only UNSWEETENED coconut milk, found in Asian sections of the grocery store. WARNING: Use latex gloves to seed chiles, since seeds contain volatile oils, which can get on fingers, and then in eyes or on lips and burn like H***! :)

Steps:
- Peel and devein the shrimp and cut into 1 inch pieces.
- Cut large scallops in quarters, medium size ones in half, so that all are the same size. NOTE: Bay scallops (the small ones) may be used if sea scallops not available. No need to cut, since they are usually about the same size.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Cook chile, shallots, garlic, scallions, ginger and bell peppers over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft but not browned.
- Add the curry powder and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the fish stock ( or clam broth) and coconut milk and gently simmer for 5 minutes.
- Just before serving, add the shrimp and scallops. Gently simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the shellfish is firm. Add salt, pepper and more curry powder to taste.
- Ladle the chowder into bowls and garnish each with chopped cilantro.
